A 6 year old in Virginia shot his teacher, who now has life threatening injuries. Gun nuts are Still arguing we need even More guns. Apparently the only way to stop a bad 6 year old with a gun is a good 6 year old with a gun.🙄

Here’s the thing. MAGA/GOP hold two wildly hypocritical positions:

1) We need unlimited guns to stop Govt tyranny.

AND

2) We 100% support the Govt as police kill 1100+ civilians annually—far more than every developed country on Earth.

Deadly hypocrisy. Vote GOP out.

A tale of two presidents.

Last night on Christmas Eve TX Gov Abbot sent asylum seekers to DC with no winter clothes or shelter. What "Christ like" behavior.

If only the Bible had a story of a mother fleeing tyranny w/her infant for refuge in a foreign land—maybe GOP would welcome refugees fleeing tyranny w/their kids for refuge in USA. Amazing how the same GOP extremists who demand the Constitution be based on the Bible, suddenly forget ever Biblical principle about serving humanity.

The dangerous hypocrisy of it all.

As a human rights lawyer who has done extensive immigration work, let me make something absolutely clear.

Asylum is legal immigration.
There's no "port of entry" requirement.
There's no "visa" requirement.
There's no "first country" requirement.
You enter the United States, and you apply for asylum.

Because asylum is legal immigration. Period.

Period.

Some inconvenient facts about immigrants that MAGAs hope you ignore:

•Seeking asylum is a legal & human RIGHT, protected by the US Constitution and the UN Convention on Refugees (to which the USA is a signatory)

•Both documented AND undocumented immigrants have LOWER crime rates than US Citizens (and usually higher vaccination rates too)

•Undocumented immigrants pay MORE in taxes ($12B annually) than Trump ever has or will (and get none of the tax benefits)

RT if you learned something new!

@QasimRashid thank you!!!

I am truly horrified & outraged that the Taliban has banned women in Afghanistan from attaining education. The founder of Islam, Prophet Muhammad (sa), loudly condemned such barbarity when he declared, "Education is obligatory upon every Muslim male & female."

In fact Prophet Muhammad (sa) cherished both spiritual & secular education, & encouraged reading & writing for all people—not just Muslims. We stand with Afghan women. Indeed, Taliban terrorists are the antithesis of Islam & all humanity.

BREAKING: The January 6 Committee has officially made four CRIMINAL referrals to the Dept of Justice against Donald J. Trump. They are:

1—Obstruction of an official proceeding
2—Conspiracy to defraud the United States of America
3—Conspiracy to make a false statement (fake electors)
4—Incite, assist, or aid an Insurrection

Justice delayed is justice denied. DOJ—You’re up! Don’t let America down!

Easy like a Sunday morning

Know how we know these comments are grounded in white supremacy—not national security?

Right now there are 600,000+ undocumented immigrants in America from Canada & Europe—when was the last time you heard MAGA call for a northern border wall or travel ban from Europe?🤔

That’s the complexion for protection. An ask again to demand Dems pass DACA protections before Jan 3. Do not leave DACA’s fate to MAGA extremists: https://bit.ly/3YedKtj

We need a pathway to citizenship now!
